2008 Hyundai Accent Visibility

BOTH SUN VISORS ON DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE OF VEHICLE FAIL TO STAY IN PLACE. THE VISOR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE DROPPED DOWN WITHOUT WARNING WHILE I WAS DRIVING, HITTING ME ON THE TOP OF THE HEAD, AND HANGING IN PARTIAL OBSTRUCTION OF THE WINDSHIELD. WHEN I PUSHED IT TO THE SIDE IT OBSTRUCTS MY VISION ON THE LEFT AND HANGS HAPHAZARDLY. THE FAULTY VISORS ARE A SAFETY HAZARD WHICH ARE A RESULT OF A PRODUCT DEFECT BEYOND MY CONTROL. I AM A MEMBER OF A GROWING NUMBER OF DISSATISFIED HYUNDAI OWNERS WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH THEIR SUN VISORS. THESE PROBLEMS POSE A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY RISK TO HYUNDAI DRIVERS WHOSE VISION WHILE DRIVING MAY BE OBSTRUCTED BY THESE FAULTY VISORS. THESE EXPERIENCES AND SAFETY CONCERNS/COMPLAINTS ARE LOGGED BACK AS FAR AS 2008 AND CAN BE ACCESSED AT THIS URL HTTP://HOWTOMENDIT.COM/ANSWERS.PHP?ID=157121. *TR

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR FROZE AND WOULD NOT GO DOWN. WHEN I APPLIED A LITTLE MORE PRESSURE TO MAKE IT GO DOWN, SOMETHING SNAPPED AND FROM THEN ON IT WOULD NOT STAY IN PLACE ANYMORE. JUST HANGS DOWN AND FLAPS AROUND IN MY LINE OF VISION. APPROXIMATELY TWO WEEKS LATER, THE VERY SAME THING HAPPENED TO THE PASSENGER SIDE VISOR LEADING ME TO BELIEVE THAT THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE VISORS ARE DEFECTIVE. *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING MY 66K MILE 2008 HYUNDAI ACCENT GLS I PUT MY DRIVER SUN VISOR DOWN AND IT LITERALLY SNAPPED OFF IN MY HAND LAST NIGHT AND I AM DRIVING AND TRYING TO HOLD IT UP SO I CAN SEE THE ROAD! *JB

DRIVER SIDE VISOR DROPS OUT OF CLIP ON SECURED SIDE BLOCKING VIEW WHILE DRIVING. CLIP WHICH IS SUPPOSE TO KEEP UNIT SECURED TO VEHICLE IS SMALL PLASTIC RING WHICH BREAKS EASILY. DEALERSHIP JUST REPLACED THIS LESS THAN TWO YEARS AGO WHILE VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. ONE WOULD THINK THAT A LITTLE USED ITEM WOULD NOT BREAK AS EASILY AS THIS VISOR DOES. *JS

THE 2008 HYUNDAI TIBURON GT I PURCHASED DOES NOT HAVE A REAR WINDOW WIPER. DUE TO SNOW TODAY, WHILE DRIVING I COULD NOT SEE OUT OF THE BACK OF MY WINDOW. I HAD TO GET OUT OF MY CAR WHILE ON A BUSY STREET TO WIPE OFF THE WINDOW. I COULD NOT BACK OUT OF A PARKING SPACE WITH ANY CONFIDENCE THAT ALL WAS CLEAR BEHIND ME. **AT THE END OF THIS FORM, TIBURON IS NOT LISTED AS A HYUNDAI MODEL. *TR
